The Law Practice Today recently featured this article titled The Virtual Assistant: Every Lawyer Needs One.  I encourage you to read the article.  I also encourage you to  consider whether you would benefit from hiring a virtual assistant.  I have two of them, and I can tell you that my productivity has skyrocketed since adding them to my team.  I will be featuring more articles on this subject and on outsourcing in general.  It is a terrific way for a solo or small firm lawyer to get some leverage in their practice without bringing on another full time staff member.

OK, a 4-hour workweek probably isn’t likely. But, I recently had about an hour long conversation with Tim Ferris, the author of the New York Times bestselling book, The 4-Hour Workweek.

Many of Tim’s principles are directly applicable in a law practice - eliminating interruptions, outsourcing, increasing productivity and more. I recommend the book just for those sections alone.

But, the better news is that Tim allowed me to record the call.  I’m burning it to CD now and will tell you how to get a free copy as soon as I’ve got them ready. (Sorry, but this free offer is only for fellow solo and small firm lawyers).
